NOVEL NEXT Chapter 917: 917
The scene that followed was truly a sight to behold.
The pair of master and servant with wolfish intentions knelt before Liu Zhizhong, which was equivalent to kneeling before Lu Yumei, speaking endless good words and offering countless apologies.
They knelt, cried, and even fiercely slapped their own faces, the smacking sound resounding, leaving heavy marks on their faces.
Liu Zhizhong smoked nonchalantly, showing no concern for the two, and even invited Lu Yumei to start eating, noting that the food wouldn't taste as good once it got cold.
Lu Yumei was utterly enjoying herself.
When Liu Zhizhong agreed to come for dinner, she still had some reservations.
But now, she felt completely relieved and thrilled. Knowing Liu Zhizhong's way of handling things felt immensely gratifying!
Eat the food, otherwise, it'll get cold.
Lu Yumei even actively picked up food for Liu Zhizhong.
To Liu Zhizhong, wasn't this pure enjoyment?
On the ground, the two kneeling individuals had spoken until their mouths were dry and slapped their faces swollen, seeing it was still not working. Huang Wenhui started kowtowing, and Ma Guangming followed suit.
The wooden floor was quite solid, with the banging sound of them kowtowing being oddly satisfying to hear!
Liu Zhizhong soon said, "Alright, what are you two kowtowing for, aren't you afraid the dust will get stirred up and contaminate our food?"
The two on the ground quickly stopped, raising their heads, their faces fully red and swollen, and their foreheads also severely bruised.
Their previously sleek and shiny medium-length hair was now a mess, making them look extremely pitiable.
Their eyes were filled with fear, regret, and helplessness, feeling as if the darkest moment of their lives had arrived.
In front of Liu Zhizhong, they were worse than dogs.
Because they understood the world and realized that Liu Zhizhong was someone not to be messed with, despite not knowing who he was.
Liu Zhizhong tapped the four cups in front of him with his chopsticks, "Come on, as I said earlier, each of you has to drink two cups of wine. Once finished, get the hell out! If there's even a drop left, you'll both lose your official hats tomorrow, got it?"
"Ah? This..." Ma Guangming looked at the transparent fragrant wine, feeling a bit troubled, "Young Master, my heart's not too good, drinking so much strong liquor..."
"Heart's not good, yet you want to mess with women?" Liu Zhizhong shouted, cutting off Ma Guangming, "Drink or not?"
"Drink, drink, I'll drink, I'll drink, okay?"
Ma Guangming cried in fear, tears streaming down as he stood up and picked up the wine cup, ready to drink!
"Gulp, gulp, gulp..."
This old fellow really downed two large cups at once.
As for Huang Wenhui next to him, he didn't need to say anything; he was all in too, rushing to finish his two large cups. His official position was crucial, his future was crucial, surviving this ordeal was crucial; he couldn't provoke such young masters!
After drinking, the two even turned their cups upside down, displaying awkward grins at Liu Zhizhong.
Liu Zhizhong let out a few cold chuckles, nodding, "Hm, okay, you two have landed safely. Hurry up and get lost, return to your rooms. When the alcohol kicks in later, it'll be a good time to rest. Get lost, get lost, don't interrupt our meal, it's really good, Governor Ma, thanks!"
Liu Zhizhong's final smile was dazzlingly bright, and his words infinitely sincere.
Ma Guangming really wanted to burst into tears, but he could only quickly scurry away with Huang Wenhui, slinking out of the dining room.
Lu Yumei watched the two scurry away in a panic, and couldn't help but laugh, her whole body shaking with excitement...
